[QUOTE="mcatrophy, post: 1327267, member: 3187"] Quote: "There ain't no noun wot can't be verbed." I do hate verbs created from nouns where there is already a perfectly good verb available. But then, I'm a fussy person where language is concerned. (I can hear all the cries of "surely not?" from my regular readers.) I suspect both "cupping" and "scalloping" are verbs derived from nouns (a miserable attempt to keep on topic). Also, some of the [S]arguments[/S] discussions above do show the futility of semantic issues, where the same word can mean different things to different people. This is one reason why I'm a fussy b*gg*r where language is concerned. [/QUOTE]
